A Correct answer
Explanation

Stoical describes someone who is indifferent to pleasure, pain, or emotion - who endures circumstances without showing feeling. Chafing means feeling irritated, impatient, or resentful - experiencing emotional discomfort or agitation. These are opposites - the stoic suppresses emotion while chafing is characterized by emotional irritation and restlessness.
